Is the line called "ANAI" or "ANIA"?

[bmathison1972]

ah, ANIA. I have been spelling it wrong. Thanks for catching.

Due to be released this month: ANIA Animals in a Savannah gift set:

[Beetle guy]

This set of three is out.

I have the crayfish and hermit crab on order :-)

EDIT: The crayfish might be a rehash of their old B.I.G. Insects figure, but the hermit crab looks new and tantalizing. And, it looks like a marine species, not the usual terrestrial Coenobita.

It is the Pagurus filholi translated from Rakuten.

Hey, those aren't bad! Good to see a little variety in aquatic crustaceans.

Sadly I haven't found them yet from an online retailer, I was hoping Hobbylink would get them since they're very consistent stocking Ania.

That would be a new species!

The B.I.G. Insects and B.I.G. Beetle sets for 2019 have been announced. Nothing really new or exciting here, compared to previous sets.

Thanks @Beetle guy for the heads-up and images.

Four, you missed the Indominus rex:

No I didn't; I don't post fantasy creatures

All JP/JW dinos are fantasy animals

Hahahahaha I actually knew you'd come back with that   
Yes, I agree, but at least the others were based on actual critters

[stargatedalek]

Fair enough!

I've been buying mostly Mattel JW stuff this year, but hopefully as more and more of that becomes repaints I can transition back to a normal buying schedule. Getting some Ania is at the top of the list, I'm curious what their articulation is like.

Oh WoW i love the bugs, where do you buy them? And also when are the Takara bugs due to be out?
